Disclaimer: It's been brought to my attention that if hypothetically there was to be a Virgin Mary in this millinea... It is not Jennifer Lopez. On the same Note I REPEAT.. I am NOT THE MOTHER. tHE MORON/LOSER KNOWN AS Eninmiem which BTW not to inventive has since made a mockery of herself and the rest of u humans by writing what is just hack writing which pretty much consits of all of her other endevaors. That said I move back to our SPECIAL airing of The Emancipation of Mimi. (Now that is a HOT TOPIC of conversation.)
Author's Notes: This is just something to shoot ...P.s. I'm not Jennifer Garner either.

Power is all encompassing yeilding it is more than most humans can contain. To know what true power one has to have a sense of self that is not easy in a world where gift's and abblities are frowned upon. I understand that now after all these years. Giles wanted me to see what being a slayer really meant. I fought for so long wanting to be a normal girl that I lost sight of who I was.

Being the one is who I am before anything else I am a slayer first, and everything else next. Wiping the sweat off my brow I take a seat on the bench inside the studio, since the destruction of the town the gang and I have moved around a bit, we finally found a nice place to settle down. And have since opened a dojo.

It's a new experience for me seeing as how I've never run anything where money was involved the Double Meat Palace dosen't count. I was like in a lame hat. This on the other hand is different I actually do something, other than stand around. I'm contemplating the standing when Faith walks in she's got a bag in one-hand and a container of something in the other. Her head-phones are blaring and she's got this goofy grin on her face trademark dimples in place.

I follow her as she heads to the back of the room. As she opens the bag, I get the urge to just snatch it out of her hands and run. Why? I'm not sure but the thought is there known the less, instead I just watch her for a long moment until I get the urge to just take, the sandwich. I barely get out of arms reach when she pulls me back.

"How did you?..."

"The Mariah she's great for the soul, not to mention she's very appealing."

Faith has this look of serenity plastered on her face it's surreal yet very erotic, and I'm thinking to myself I've got to check this The Mariah out.

"So spill, who is she and when can I meet her?"

"Who?"

"This The Mariah."

"Whoa B. Chill, The Mariah is a person not someone I'm seeing. I've got Super Powers I'm not God, however I would gladly take the job if she came with it." Faith replied smiling, Buffy just rolled her eyes.

"Whatever so what has you so fascinated with her, when if I recall I'm supposed to be you unattainable dream-girl?"

"Well my little blonde quamquait, it's hard to explain ok maybe not. You are still my dream-girl yet if I were older and was not saving the world on a daily basis, I would leave you and set out for the Holy Grail that is The Mariah Carey."

"Sure you would. I'm just saying that I feel hurt that you have found someone else to like more than me."

"Well B, don't take this the wrong way or anything except I dig you, but she's just well just look at her." Faith pulled out a cd holding it up to her, taking a look at the cd Buffy suddenly felt a lot under appreciated.

"She's..."

"She's gourgeous I know. But she's also like a humanitarian and you would dig her cause she's got the whole tortured soul thing down plus she's sexy and sophisticated and way romantic. Five Stars hands down."

"I can't belive you are saying that, and you got this from one cd?"

"No suprisingly I got it from ten cd's, but I'm not like a fan or anything."

"Sure you just buy music and listen to it? Which makes you a fan correct."

"No I said I am not a fan so I am not a fan. I just know good music when I hear it, and that is good music."

"I'm not going to argue with you I can tell this is a moot point. But you are really a strange one."

"Well if you look at our lives I think we are both in the same boat. Now come on I got another burger in here that says I can take you."

Nodding the two began to circle each other moving thru the room. They ended up in and all out brawl after an half-and hour of sparring Buffy helped herself to the rest of Faith's lunch. The brunette glared on from her postion on the bench but she wasn't too upset she knew there was always more fun to be had later when Buffy was involved. Grabbing her head-phones she went back to her world.

Buffy watched her from her postion across the room the two had been doing this dance for years now where they into each other of weren't they. Did she love Faith and did Faith feel the same way or was this just another obstacle they had to face it was driving her crazy.

She knew she wanted her that was as obvious as she was standing there but she knew that having what she wanted always ended up with her in a cross-fire. Sighing she went back to her musings Faith was into another world as she came over to her.

Looking up Faith saw the green eyes looking up to her blinking she smiled and extended a head pulling B closer to her she smiled as she fell in her lap. Buffy was shocked yet enjoyed the playful banter they often shared.

"So now what?"

"Well if I were a cliche I'd say something like this lookes like the beginning of a beautiful friendship."

"Which I would look at you as if you were the lamest person on the planet. But somehow think it was kinda romantic."

"So here's what I'm gonna do."

"What's that?"

"This." Faith leaned in to kiss Buffy then she lifted her up and carried her out of the room.

The End
